Audio not working for Gnome Screencast Ctrl + Alt + Shift + R












9















I can do screencasts by pressing ctrl+alt+shift+r, but I get no sound when I view the videos, I've check my built in mic and headset, they both work on skype and such, I just can't record sound with the gnome built in screencasting. Also, when I open the videos in movieplayer they are in mute by default and there's nothing the the preferences I can find to change that.



Any help would be awesome!

I found a solution that worked in my case. Open terminal Ctrl+Alt+T and run the following command:



gsettings set org.gnome.shell.recorder pipeline "queue ! videorate ! vp8enc quality=8 speed=6  threads=%T ! mux. pulsesrc ! audio/x-raw-int ! queue ! audioconvert !
vorbisenc ! mux. webmmux name=mux"


OR do it with dconf Editor, and then you'll have to modify the file: /usr/share/gnome-shell/js/ui/main.js in line 110 (I think) replace:



recorder.pause();


with



recorder.close();


After that, you can decide what stream of audio (internal or external) you want in recorder installing pavucontrol.



I hope that this would help.

  • Now it doesn't work at all. New laptop, new OS: thinkpad x1 carbon, Ubuntu Gnome 13.10. The main.js file is different. It doesn't have the word pause anywhere in it. Also, this time around, changing the recorder string from the default just breaks the recorder, no function at all. Any ideas?

Actually, you can record audio. You just need to re do the pipe in the config:



Paste this into a console and that should do the trick:



gsettings set org.gnome.shell.recorder pipeline "queue ! videorate ! vp8enc quality=10 speed=2 ! mux. pulsesrc ! audio/x-raw-int ! queue ! audioconvert ! vorbisenc ! mux. webmmux name=mux"

  • Hmmm that seems to work, except it never finishes. It keeps recording audio even after I press ctrl + alt + shift + r again. I think it's still recording now.

EasyScreenCast (extension)



This extension simplifies the use of the video recording function integrated in gnome shell, allows quickly to change the various settings of the desktop recording.



https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/690/easyscreencast/



Active Shortcut: Super+E



_



NOTICE: If an error occurs during the update is recommended to reload GNOME Shell (Alt + F2, 'r') and reload the extension's installation page.

  • Start recording button doesn't do anything. Shortcut key as well. I'm on Gnome on Ubuntu 18.04.

According to Ubuntu Buzz - Unofficial Ubuntu blog you cannot record audio with build-in gnome-shell screencast.




This is one of great feature which is owned by the Gnome Shell, but
one notable thing you should know is, you can't record any voice using
this, you will get silent video




Source: Ubuntubuzz.com



I searched and found another source. I don't know if this can be considered as more "Official".
A relevant question to yours , about audio




On a related note, is it planned/allowed to be able to record audio as
well as video?




answered like this




For sound you could just open sound recorder and start talking.




Source: Gnome-shell development



Of course all other answers here (with dconf editor & pipeline) are workarounds you can use.

    • It doesn't record audio? I'm sorry I assumed it recorded audio. Is there a plan to include this at any point in time?

    • Start recording button doesn't do anything. Shortcut key as well. I'm on Gnome on Ubuntu 18.04.

    According to Ubuntu Buzz - Unofficial Ubuntu blog you cannot record audio with build-in gnome-shell screencast.




    This is one of great feature which is owned by the Gnome Shell, but
    one notable thing you should know is, you can't record any voice using
    this, you will get silent video




    Source: Ubuntubuzz.com



    I searched and found another source. I don't know if this can be considered as more "Official".
    A relevant question to yours , about audio




    On a related note, is it planned/allowed to be able to record audio as
    well as video?




    answered like this




    For sound you could just open sound recorder and start talking.




    Source: Gnome-shell development



    Of course all other answers here (with dconf editor & pipeline) are workarounds you can use.
